of hand sanitizer at the entrance and exit of all areas including but not limited to seating areas, offices, etc.

Livestock employees, volunteers, and judges will undergo training/in-service instructing them on how to
stay safe and keep our attendees safe and healthy.
We will display a vast amount of social distancing and hygiene signs. Signage will be placed in high traffic
areas and strategic locations, reminding guests to practice social distancing and hygiene.

of Exhibits.”
Inspection of Exhibits:
1. The association and its representatives have the authority to require such tests as they deem necessary to
verify the accuracy of the classification and pedigree of exhibited animals. “Said authority shall extend to
and cover the enforcement of all show rules as adopted by the UBB.”
2. Each exhibitor shall submit his registered Braford cattle to such tests and examinations as requested and/or
required by the Association, its authorized representatives, or the authorized representatives of the relevant
show.

releases the Association, its officers, directors and representatives from negligence, any and all claims, suits
and judgements, past present or future, arising from or connected with the administration or use of such test
or examination and the resulting divisions there from.
4. Dental inspection: All entries may be classified for judging on an age basis and should be entered in class
according to age. Teeth may be inspected by a veterinarian designated by the UBB in order to determine
whether dental development is within allowable limits for the class so entered. If the veterinarian
determines that in his opinion dental development exceeds maximum allowable limits, the animal shall be
moved to an older class as determined by the veterinarian and shall remain in that class until determined
otherwise by subsequent mouthing or favorable appeal to the Executive Committee. If it is not possible to
move an animal, the animal may not be exhibited in such show.
5. Any Exhibitor desiring to dispute or challenge the results of any such test, exam, or show rule enforcement,
as applied to his animal, shall do so in accordance with procedures established by the Rules of the
Association.
6. Appeal: an appeal from the decision of the veterinarian or designated association representatives designated
by the UBB under sections 1 and 4 of the Inspection of Exhibits may be made to the Executive Committee
of the UBB if the following requirements are satisfied: (1) the appeal is in writing and is signed by the
appealing party and (2) the appealing party files the written appeal with the UBB Executive Committee as
soon as possible after the veterinarian's or designated association representative's decision was made. If an
appeal satisfying the foregoing requirements is filed with the UBB Executive Committee, the Committee
shall hold a hearing at which the appealing party and the veterinarian or designated association
representatives whose decision is being appealed shall present statements and other evidence that are
relevant to the matter, following which the Executive Committee shall render a decision which shall be
final and conclusive.

judgments past, present, or future, arising from or connected with the administration or use of such test or
examination and the resulting decision there from.
Special Rules for the International Brangus, Red Brangus, & Ultra Shows
1. Dental Inspection: All entries may be classified for judging on an age basis and should be entered in class
according to age. Teeth may be inspected by a veterinarian designated by the IBBA in order to determine
whether dental development is within allowable limits for the class so entered. If the veterinarian
determines that in his opinion dental development exceeds maximum allowable limits, the animal shall be
moved to an older class as determined by the veterinarian and shall remain in that class until determined
otherwise by subsequent mouthing or favorable appeal to the Executive Committee. If it is not possible to
move an animal, the animal may not be exhibited in such show.
2. Any exhibitor desiring to dispute or challenge the results of any such test, exam, or show rule enforcement,
as applied to his animals, shall do so in accordance with procedures established by the rules of the IBBA.
3. Appeal: An appeal from the decision of the veterinarian or designated association representatives
designated by the I.B.B.A. under sections 2 and 6 of the Inspections of Exhibits may be made to the IBBA
Board of Directors if the following requirements are satisfied: 1) the appeal is in writing and is signed by
the appealing party; and 2) the appealing party files the written appeal with the IBBA Board of Directors as
soon as possible after the veterinarian’s or designated association representatives’ decision is rendered and
in any event within six (6) hours of the time the veterinarian’s or designated association representative’s
decision was made. If an appeal satisfying the forgoing requirements is filed with the IBBA Board of
Directors, the IBBA Board of Directors shall hold a hearing at which the appealing party and the
veterinarian or designated association representatives whose decision is being appealed shall present
statements and other evidence that are relevant to the matter, following which the IBBA Board of Directors
shall render a decision which shall be final and conclusive.
IBBA DNA TYPING FOR PARENTAGE VERIFICATION
Each Brangus, Red Brangus, UltraBlack or UltraRed animal for which an entry application or registration
is received may be subjected to a DNA genotyping test in order to verify accuracy of parentage, according
to Rules 5, 6, and 7 of the International Brangus Breeders Association (IBBA) Show Eligibility and
Inspection of Exhibits. Staff or a representative of IBBA will supervise the collection of tail hair samples,
which can be taken at shows, fairs and events where IBBA contributes premium money or where IBBA
staff personnel participate. If a recorded parent is excluded (as a parent) as a result of DNA analysis, the
owner of the animal may request, as his or her own expense, further determination of the actual parent.
Failure to determine the sire or dam will result in the animal being listed in the IBBA Registry as a
“Parentage Dispute,” and the animal will be ineligible for future shows and exhibitions.
